Hi, Phill Whiteside schrieb: Much better :-) Just been having a general play (importing accounts to pidgin and chromium etc). I did notice that x-chat is there as an IRC agent.

Since changing to pidgin for IRC, I have a much quieter computer (and an un-burned lap) As pidgin is going to be shipped, is x-chat required ? I'm just wondering what affect it was Vs pidgin on lower spec processors. Pidgin is IMHO no real IRC client and misses a lot of features and behaviors in this regard. I know that disk mounting was mentioned, but does / is lubuntu going to have the equivalent of Places to provide a GUI for mounting partitions, it is quite conceivable for a low specification computer to be dual booting.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] GVFS issues and other bugs in pcmanfm2
Le dimanche 28 février 2010 à 00:09 +0800, PCMan a écrit : The artwork of alpha 3 rocks! Thank you all! As reported in this mailing list by some users, pcmanfm2 doesn't seem to work well with trash:// or others. It might be caused by failure of dbus launch. When gdm is used, this doesn't seem to be the problem since gnome seems to do something under the hood. However, with lxde, this is not automatic. The latest lxsession in git repo contains code to automatically launch dbus when needed. This must be used instead of the currently released tarball 0.4.1. Otherwise things might not work if you're not using gdm. Thanks for tacking this, I'll made the necessary modifications. I know that now we're feature freeze. However, there are plans to update most of the LXDE components recently. If this could be limited to pcmanfm/libfm, that will be nice :) Handle new features after Feature Freeze is difficult and a long process, and we can't spend this time to fix bugs. Targets: 1. Finish PCManFM2. (planned release date: before 3/20, deadline: end of March) 2. Add basic theming support to LXLauncher and fix its bugs -- this is required for netbook mode of lubuntu I don't think the theming is really needed for this realease. 3. Make a new release for LXSession including new logout mechanism added by Marty Jack. For now, logout working good. Introducing a new mechanism now will need testing/bug fixes. It's a good think, but not sure it's necessary for this release. 4. New components now requires menu-cache 0.3.2, which is not yet in alpha3. (soname is changed) I'm working on it. 5. LXMusic might work now in Lubuntu since xmms2 is updated in ubuntu. Test is needed to make sure. It's working since some times. 6. LXDM: this is one of the most problematic part, too. Need some help. Yes, and unfortunately, boot process on Lucid have many changes since Karmic :( The most important part is pcmanfm2 as this is the core of LXDE. If it fails to be stable enough before 10.4 release, Lubuntu will have many problems. So I'll do my best to ensure its quality. Soon there will be 0.9.1 release. The parts that requires most testing in pcmanfm2 are: 1. File operations: copying, moving, deleting, and trashing. (The most important) 2. Remote file system support 3. Thumbnails 4.

I type some (Latin) chars into the test box and click Next without changing anything else. After I click through to screen #6 (user information), I cannot proceed since the keyboard is somehow blocked: no alphanumeric keys work at all. However, something else works: space, enter, arrows, ins, home, end, del, pageup, pagedown, | and \ (same key with and without Shift), maybe something else (don't know how to test Ctrl, Alt, Esc, functionals, etc.) Installing a Russian version from a Russian LiveCD session works fine. Selecting German or some Indian layout (line #8 from the bottom of the list) works in an English LiveCD session. (Works means it does not lock the keyboard, I didn't run any installation to the end so far.) Selecting Greek l11n from an English LiveCD session yields those ?? lines, but does not lock the keyboard. I understand this can be the base Ubuntu issue, but currently I have no time to download the daily iso and play with it, sorry. Hopefully someone else can do it... Yes probably, or maybe it's the lack of language support on the Live-CD. It's something to test when the installer will be more stable. Sincerely, Mikhail Maksimov PS There're also some annoying ureadahead error messages during the boot, but those don't seem to be harmful. I have also seen such messages when I tested 20100215 iso on a physical machine. I think someone else mentioned those here on the list, too.
